Ballistic Missile Defense Joint Warfighter Support
Abstract
The Joint Warfighter Support Program (JWSP) is the Missile Defense Agency's (MDA's) primary means for providing direct technical support to Combatant Commands (CCMDs), the Military Services, and the Joint Staff on Missile Defense System development, testing, operational support, and configuration management. It enables delivery of Missile Defense System capabilities to Warfighters and ensures their participation in the identification and development of new Missile Defense (MD) capabilities via the Warfighter Involvement Process. The JWSP allows the Warfighter and MDA to work together to identify gaps, seams, and needs in warfighting capability and enhance Missile Defense System attributes by submitting modification and fielding requests. It also provides 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year MD operational support to Warfighters worldwide, to include global system verification and validation over the operational Common Interactive Broadcast. The program enables rapid response to Warfighter Requests for Information and Requests for Analyses, which are especially critical to mission success in protecting U.S. Forces and other defended assets during Real World threat events. The program also supports improving products delivered to Warfighters through technical reviews and technical analyses supporting strategic and regional MD planning, development of shot doctrine and MD design. The JWSP also enables the inclusion of both CCMD and MDA MD objectives in CCMD/Joint Staff-sponsored Wargames and Exercises, which are used to sharpen and enhance joint MD warfighting skills. Finally, the JWSP administers all Navy Reserve support personnel and handles coordination for Army, Air Force and Space Force Reserve that provide technical, engineering, intelligence, integration, and operational support to the MDA.
